In my space, you can't get in
In my head, you don't exist
In my world, you don't belong
In my hood, you're fucking dead

In your world, I promise to pull it in
In your world, I'm strugglin' to make it all make sense
In your world, your words try to suffocate mine
In your world, you change the rules as you go

In my thoughts (in my thoughts)
You scream in pain
In my dreams (in my dreams)
You fucking die
In my hate (in my hate)
You fucking burn
In my hood (in my hood)
You're fucking dead

Once again, I promise to pull it in
Once again, I'm strugglin' to make it all make sense
Once again, your words try to suffocate mine
Once again, you change the rules as you go

You can take the boy out of the hood
Can't take the hood out of the boy
You can take the boy out of the hood
But you can't take the hood out of the boy
What up, punk?
Gonna fuck it up

In my schools (in my schools)
You fucking fail
In my church (in my church)
You go to hell
In my courts (in my courts)
You're in contempt
In my law (in my laws)
You go to jail
In my jails (in my jails)
There's no parole
In my hood (in my hood)
You don't get out alive
